Howdy Marnie,
It totally understand that. If the only events you need to migrate are the ones from the old site then yeah, the import/export tools should do it. I know of nothing that has change since the March article that would affect this. It’s definitely something we could walk you through. I think that option would actually be preferable to doing an iCal export/import as it will preserve other data like featured images, if there is any extra data.
If I were you I would give that tutorial a go. If you do encounter any issues along the way please don’t hesitate to holler, I can you through them.

Howdy Phyllis,
Great questions, I can see you have been doing your fair share of research.
What other plug ins are needed along with Event Tickets Plus?
Event Tickets Plus is and addon for the free Event Tickets. So you will first need to install Event Tickets, then you can get the addon Plus version to work wonders. The Events Calendar is not needed, but commonly also used for its event showcasing features.
In Event Tickets Plus it states you do design your ticket from templates. Where are these templates located? Are they included with the plug in or do I have to look elsewhere from them and then load them in.
The templates come with the plugin, and are located with the /src/views/ folder. More detailed information can be found here if you’re interested: Themer’s Guide.
Are you able to have the tickets to go ahead and be emailed to the customer without someone having to approve them first once payment has been made? The website will be using WooCommerce.
This is certainly possible. In your settings just check the box that sets ticket orders to complete automatically.
Does that all make sense and fully answer your questions? Please let me know.
Cheers!

Howdy Nora,
Great questions. I’ll answer them one-by-0ne.
1. For Community Events, are you able to add more than 1 image? If so, how many images are you able to add? What are the recommended dimensions or max size?
Folks are limited to one “featured image”, this is the same as a WP featured image of which there is only one. They can show more images in the content body, but they are not able to upload them to your site and thus must have them uploaded to another site like imgur.
2. Are you able to “feature” an event and have it always show at the top of a category? If so, how many “featured” events can you have?
Featuring events like that is not currently a feature of our calendar. If you would like to see us add this though please do make it a feature request: UserVoice (feature suggestion page for The Events Calendar)
3. Are community business who submit an event able to provide links to their social media platforms? Or just their website?
By default it is only their website. However you can add more fields including social media ones. That would be no problem.
Does that all make sense and paint a clear answer for you? Please let me know.
Cheers!

Howdy Leah,
That is certainly possible. The easiest way would probably be to create a theme override by following our Themer’s Guide. The file you would want to override would be the modules\tickets.php file. You might just copy/paste the following snippet into [your-theme]/tribe-events/community-tickets/modules/tickets.php
https://gist.github.com/elimn/9270713f8539e3bd8178d35759d9b79a
From there find the line that says:
$checked = $module === 'WooCommerce';And change it to:
if ( $module !== 'WooCommerce' ) continue;That should show only WooCommerce. The original snippet I shared sets Woo to the default, but this will completely hide the other options.
Does that all make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know.
Cheers!

You could certainly customize things to do that, it will require a decent measure of skill with PHP to get there though. We can definitely give you an overview, but it will be up to your or your programmer to write the actual code.
You can however customize which filters appear for all views from the admin area.
Does that answer your question?

Okay I understand you. Thank you for clarifying.
If the users that will be going to public events will not need to be logged in to view this, then there is no prebuilt setup out there available for your use. However with an hour or 2 of time from your web developer it would be possible to put this together. Here’s the simplest way I can think of to build this:
- Create a new category called something like “Private Events”
- Modify the following snippet so that it hides that category not based on user capabilities, but based on whether or not you are viewing a specific category (such as example.com/events/categories/private-events)
https://gist.github.com/elimn/c47fb3e65d437c2479bd
What that will do is make it so that any event with the Private Events Category checked will not be visible on the default calendar views. However anyone could still view those views if they visit the URL example.com/events/categories/private-events . So you could simply link your users to that page when they need to view private events, effectively creating two calendars. Keep in mind you can mark an individual event with multiple categories, so you can still categorize private events as well.
The only caveat is the above will certainly require a programmer versed in PHP though. Does that all make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know.
Cheers!

Howdy David!
I would love to help you with this. If you set the terimenra date to be the 21st or later I believe it should work exactly as you expect. Make sure to set it on both recurrences. Did that work?
Cheers!

Howdy Cory,
That is certainly odd behavior. I would love to help you with this.
Looking at this I am not seeing folks with similar symptoms. The closest thing I have encountered only applied to folks using Filter Bar, which you are not.
Considering this we will need to test if a “conflict” is happening, and if so narrow it down so we can find a fix for it. This guide walks you through how to test for a conflict, and then identify what is conflicting. After running through those steps are you able to get the issue to temporarily disappear? If so, were you able to narrow down where the conflict is so I can search for a solution?
Cheers!

Howdy Josh,
If you update your plugins you should see that attendee names are included! Would updating to 4.1.2 work for you?
Cheers!

Howdy Brandon,
Great question. tribe_get_events() can be a bit tempermental it seems like. I think all you’re missing is casting those date strings to times. You probably want the beginning of the first day through the end of the last one. If so I would replace them with this code:
$exportEvent['startDate'] = tribe_beginning_of_day( '2016-4-1' ); // start_date $exportEvent['endDate'] = tribe_end_of_day( '2016-4-30' ); // end_dateDid that help?
Cheers!

Howdy Erin,
Thank you for sharing all of your information and ther details to reproduce. I am definitely seeing that problem on your site. Basically selecting or changing a category while in List view is enough to reproduce it. Refreshing causes it to go away.
The tricky thing is I am not seeing this locally on my site in spite of everything I’ve tried to reproduce it. There has to be some difference between our two sites. Typically the main thing differences would be the plugins we’re running, or even perhaps the them. In order to proceed we will need to test if a “conflict” is happening, and if so narrow it down so we can find a fix for it. This guide walks you through how to test for a conflict, and then identify what is conflicting. After running through those steps, are you able to get things ordered properly after switching categories?
Cheers!
